villaman Posted February 6, 2021 Report Share Posted February 6, 2021 (edited) Replaced tail lights for the GTS style variant. Much better look as the original on a Guards red was just a little to much red.....very pleased. paid £375 new from Germany (actually I think it might of been an OEM supplier in Poland) Edited February 7, 2021 by villaman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Daz May I pick your brain...( tried to p.m. you but you may have a full mailbox) My independent specialist Cotswold Porsche, have asked or stated the below re. the X73 anti roll bar. "The only uncertainty is that the kit is based on -20mm. The drop links are the same, so this would make me think the ARB is a different shape to account for the lower suspension. Do you want to mull this over?". My car is a non PASM....do you think this could be a problem for my car? thanks for your help Simon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My car is a non PASM....do you think this could be a problem for my car? thanks for your help Simon My understanding is that the bars are the same shape the only difference I noted was that the mounting points are thicker and the bar was solid rather than hollow Schnell certainly don't stipulate any limitations. http://www.schnellautosports.com/x73-rear-sway-bar-for-981.html I guess they are worried that it may not fit but from my experience and the research I have done it should all bolt right up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mja986 Posted February 8, 2021 Report Share Posted February 8, 2021 Will be interested in how you get on villaman, my car is non-PASM too (manual). Was mulling over this a while back and had a booking with Centre Gravity for a road tune and to discuss an X73 arb with them, but lockdowns haven’t made it possible yet.

Patt Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 I put the full x73 kit on mine last year. I wouldn't say it's really heart the ride, although with the 19" winter tyres its a tad bouncy at times. There is an special OEM alignment especially for the X73 kit - with or without sports chrono too. I had mine fitted in August by Revolution, although I would imagine that your issue now would be Porsche shipping the kit over the channel.

Jago Posted February 9, 2021 Report Share Posted February 9, 2021 I've had some 3D printed prototype anti wind buffeting triangles delivered today. so going to fit and test when the weather is nice enough and see if they work. If they do maybe a bit of fettling on them to finalise ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it favourable for the x73 conversion? Was thinking of doing this but the Porsche Tequipment catalog no longer states a price. It was £2600 last year but since leaving the EU the prices have been removed and what with my recent purchase that had increased substantially I dread to guess the price now. Probably North of 3k.
